203340. （2016•西工大附中•九模） William Butler Yeats，a most famous Irish writer，was born in Dublin on June 13，1865．His childhood lacked the harmony that was typical of a happy family．Later，Yeatocked his family by saying that he remembered"little of childhood but its pain"．In fact，he inherited （继承） excellent taste in art from his family-both his father and his brother were painters．But he finally settled on literature，particularly drama and poetry．
   Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements．He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s．His early theatrical experiments，however，were not received favorably at the beginning．He didn't lose heart，and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama．
   Compared with his dramatic works，Yeats's poems attract much admiring notice．The subject matter includes love，nature，history，time and aging．Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms，he brought modern sensibility（情感） to them．As his literary life progressed，his poetry grew finer and richer，which led him to worldwide recognition．
  He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923．Yet，he continued writing almost to the end of his life．Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40，he would probably now be valued as a minor poet，for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the age of 50 and 75．After Yeats's death in 1939，W．H．Auden wrote，among others，the falling liners：
Earth，receive an honored guest：
William Yeats is laid to rest．
Let the Irish vessel （船） lie
Emptied of its poetry．

（1）Which of the following can describe Yeats's family？
A．It filled Yeats's childhood with laughter．
B．It waocked by Yeats's choice．
C．It was a typically wealthy family．
D．It had an artistic atmosphere．
（2）According to these passage，what do we know about Yeats's life？
A．Yeats founded the first Irish theater
B．Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry．
C．Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s．
D．Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Nobel Prize．
（3）What kind of feeling is expressed in W．H．Auden's lines？
A．Envy．
B．Sympathy．
C．Emptiness．
D．Admiration．
（4）What is the passage mainly about？
A．Yeats's literary achievements．
B．Yeats's historical influence．
C．Yeats's artistic ambition．
D．Yeats's national honor．

205861. （2017•西安中学•高二上期末） No poem should ever be discussed or "analyzed"，until it has been read aloud by someone，teacher or student．Better still，perhaps，is the practice of reading it twice，once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end，so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it．
   All discussions of poetry are，in fact，preparations for reading it aloud，and the reading of the poem is，finally，the most telling "interpretation（解释）" of it，suggesting tone，rhythm，and meaning all at once．
   Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice，on records or on films，is obviously a special reward．But even those aids to teaching cannot replace the student and teacher reading or，best of all，reciting（背诵）it．
   I have come to think，in fact，that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than "analyzing" it，if there isn't time for both．I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry．Poetry is "a criticism of life"，and "a heightening（提升）of life"，It is "an approach to the truth of feeling"，and it "can save your life"．It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies．
   I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry．Those who don't like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else．But those，who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature，about its sound as well as its sense，and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it．

（1）What is the better way to have a better understanding of a poem？
A．Discussing it with others．
B．Practising reading it aloud．
C．Hearing the poet read out．
D．Analyzing it by oneself．
（2）According to the author，one of the purposes of teaching English is getting students       ．
A．to like poetry
B．to criticize life
C．to enjoy life
D．to teach poetry
（3）The underlined word "make room" probably means       ．
A．to build a booth
B．to provide equipment
C．to learn a certain amount of time
D．to set aside enough space
（4）The passage is mainly about       ．
A．teaching poetry
B．discussing poetry
C．reading a poem
D．reciting a poem

205187. （2021•西安中学•高二上期末） The small unframed painting called "Fishman" was signed by a little-known Italian artist，Maveleone （1669-1740）.When it was sold recently in New York for ＄27，000，the seller，Mr.Oliver Pitt，was asked to explain how the picture had come into his possession.Pitt said， "I didn't know it was so valuable.I'm not an art expert.Photography is my hobby.I bought 'Fisherman' in Italy in 1970 for ＄140.The picture was dirty，and I could see the artist's signature.But anyway，it wasn't the picture that I liked.I bought it because of the frame.
   "It's a most unusual frame，made of tiny，silver sea-shells.They are set in such a way that they reflect perfect light onto the surface of a picture.I now have a photograph of my wife in that frame，and I'll never part with it.
   "When I returned to New York I showed the painting in its frame to a customs officer.I told him that I had paid ＄140 for it but admitted I didn't know its actual worth.The customs man valued it at ＄140，and I was asked to pay duty on that value.I did so，there and then.
   "Later，I took off the frame，and that uncovered Maveleone's signature.My wife suggested in fun that the painting might be a valuable one；so I cleaned it and put it up for sale."
   As a result of this explanation，Oliver Pitt had to appear in court.He was accused of knowingly making a false statement of the value of a picture so as to cheat the Customs Department.
   Pitt was not happy， "I told the truth as I knew then，" he said. "What else could I say？"
   And then the judge agreed with him. "The Customs Department is responsible，" he said， "for making a true valuation of goods brought into the country，so that the correct amount of duty may be charged.Mr.Pitt did not cause or try to cause the mistake that was made.He paid the duty that was demanded.If，now，the Customs Department finds that its valuation was not correct，it cannot be allowed to have another try.Pitt is not guilty."

203263. （2016•西工大附中•六模） Grant Wood's American Gothic caused a stir（轰动）in 1930 when it was exhibited for the first time at the Art Institute of Chicago and awarded a prize of 300 dollars．Newspapers across the country carried the story，and the painting of a farmer and a younger woman posed before a white house brought the artist instant fame．
In 1930，Grant Wood，an American painter with European training，noticed a small white house built in the small southern Iowa town of Eldon．Wood was so fascinated by it that he decided to paint the house along with the kind of people he thought should live in that house．In the painting，the farmer is modeled on his dentist．Dr．Byron McKeeby．His younger sister Nan served as a model for the woman （imagined to be the farmer's wife or daughter）．Wood wanted to give a description of the traditional roles of men and women as the man is holding a pitchfork （干草叉） symbolizing hard labor．Each element was painted separately；the models sat separately and never stood in front of the house．The Gothic style of the house inspired the painting's title．
American Gothic remains one of the most famous paintings in the history of American art．The painting has become part of American popular culture．Some believe that Wood used it to satirize（讽刺） the narrow-mindedness that has been said to characterize Midwestern culture．The painting may also be read as a praise of the moral virtue or rural America or even as a mixture of praise and satire．American Gothic is one of the few images to reach the status of cultural symbol，along with Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa．

203072. （2017•铁一中学•三模） You may have heard of the book Moby Dick（《白鲸记》），written by the American author Herman Melville．You may also know that Moby Dick is considered one of the greatest novels ever written．However，it might surprise you to find out Herman Melville was not always a highly regarded author．
   Melville's first two novels，Typee and Omoo，were widely read and financially successfully．They were both exciting tales of adventures at sea and experiences with people in foreign lands．Melville became quite famous．However，upon the publication of his third book，Mardi，Melville's popularity began to weaken．He was no longer interested in telling tales of pure adventure，and his writing took on a style that alienated（使疏远） the general reading public of his time．

205292. （2021•阎良区•高二下期末） There are many different types of poems.
   Many people have heard about haiku.In fact，most of us are taught at one point or another usually in elementary school or high school to write one of our very own.Actually，haiku is a form of poetry made up of three non-rhyming lines.They often express feelings and thoughts about nature；however，you could write a poem about any subject you like in this form.

205155. （2022•西安八十九中•高一下期末） From classic books like A Wrinkle in Time to classic movies like Back to the Future，children and adults both have been fascinated by the concept of time travel for hundreds of years.But is it even possible？
   Time travel sounds simple：you just move back and forth between different points in time like you would between different points in space.You could jump forward into the future，or you can jump back to sometime in the past.
   Exactly how would this be done？Most artistic works that feature time travel finish it with the help of a special device usually called a time machine.The time machine features whatever technology has been developed to transport people successfully to other points in time.
   But could time travel really happen？Some scientists believe that parts of Albert Einstein's theories of special and general relativity might allow for the possibility of time travel.These theories are complex and very hard to understand.They involve unusual astronomical things like black holes and wormholes.Traveling faster than the speed of light might also be required.
   It can be fun，though，to think about what problems might be presented by time travel.It may create an absurd situation.For example，let's say that you travel back in time to the day your parents met.What if your showing up on the day your parents met caused a ripple （连锁反应） in time that led to them not meeting？If they had never met，you would never have been born.If you had never been born，how could you ever exist to travel back in time to cause the problem you just caused？Though it may sound confusing，we hope that any scientist who ever manages to make time travel possible works out these problems in advance.

（1）What kind of film is Back to the Future most likely to be？
A．An action film.
B．A fantasy film.
C．A historical film.
D．A romantic film.
（2）What does the author mainly do in Paragraph 2？
A．Add a topic.
B．Give an example.
C．Explain a concept.
D．Make a conclusion.
（3）What is some scientists' judgment on the possibility of time travel based on？
A．Previous similar cases.
B．Accurate scientific research.
C．Some scientific theories.
D．Advanced space technology.
（4）What does the author think of time travel？
A．It will certainly come true one day.
B．It is an possible and absurd idea.
C．It will change some historical events.
D．It may cause confusion with time and space.

204885. （2022•长安区一中•高二上期末） Magic is a form of entertainment that is based on pretending to do things that are impossible.The magician is a specially trained actor.He tries to make the audience believe that he has the power to do things which are against the laws of nature.
   Magic shows are entertaining as long as the audience does not discover how the tricks are done.The magician usually depends on his skill with his hands，on his knowledge of psychology，and，sometimes，on mechanical devices.Since magic performance is meant to trick people，the use of psychology is important.The magician must keep people from noticing all the movements of his hands and from thinking about the secret parts of his equipment.He must also lead the audience to draw false conclusions.The magician's success depends on the fact that many things seen by the eye are not the things that matter.
   Two basic magic tricks are making objects seem to appear and making objects seem to disappear.A combination of these two tricks makes for some interesting effects.For example，the magician puts a small ball under one of several cups.The ball then seems to jump from one cup to another or to change colour.What actually happens is that the magician，employing quick hand movements or a mechanical device，hides one ball.While doing this he talks to the audience and waves a brightly coloured cloth with one hand.The audience is too busy watching the cloth and listening to the magician's words to notice that his other hand is hiding the ball.
   Another favourite trick is to cut or burn something，and then make it appear whole again.What actually happens is that the magician makes the cut or burned object disappear by quickly hiding it while the audience watches something else.Then he "magically" makes it appear whole again by displaying another object that has not been cut or burned.

（1）Which of the following is important for a successful magic trick？
A．Moving stage equipment.
B．Keeping the performance in secret.
C．Applying high technology.
D．Directing the audience's attention.
（2）What does the underlined word "employing" mean in paragraph 3？
A．Hiring.
B．Using.
C．Engaging.
D．Moving.
（3）How does the author develop the last two paragraphs？
A．By explaining a concept.
B．By making a summary.
C．By drawing comparisons.
D．By providing examples.
（4）What's the passage mainly about？
A．The secrets behind the art of magic.
B．The ways to be magicians.
C．The attractions of the magic show.
D．The talents of magicians.

205312. （2021•新城区•高一下期末） In 1940，a thin，gray rabbit jumped out of a hole in the ground，knocked on a hairless man's head and asked，"What's Up，Doc？" to the sound of eating a large carrot.
   Though the rabbit had appeared in previouort films for two years，this classical scene in the Warner Brothers cartoon short "A Wild Hare" introduced the version of the rabbit that would become the cultural figure of Bugs Bunny.In the decades since，Bugs has appeared in over 150 films.He has earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.And he was the first cartoon character to get his face on a postage stamp.TV Guide ranked him Number One on a list of the 50 greatest cartoon characters.
   Bugs was unlike Disney's Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.They came with their own set of physical characteristics but with little personality.Bugs was defined by his wiseacre（自作聪明）attitude and funny tricks.He rocketed to fame because he was character driven，rather than practical joke driven.And while every director put his own imagination on Bugs Bunny，they all agreed on one thing that Bugs was never to be small minded.They wanted him to be a nice person，but not a person who is easy to persuade or influence.
   For the directors and audiences alike，Bugs was more than just a cartoon character.Directors' attitude was that Bugs already existed and they were just writing about him.One of them would come home in the evening and say to his wife，"You won't believe what Bugs Bunny said today!" For so many years till now in 2021，Bugs Bunny doesn't change.He remains the lovable character that only plays tricks on those who deserve it most.

（1）How old is the cartoon character Bugs Bunny？

204809. （2022•周至四中•高二下期末） The word "music" is easier to use in practice than to explain.Music is a reminder（提醒物） of how things once were，a symbol of how things are and a view of where society is headed.Music can bring us back to memories we wish to never forget，or bring us hope when we feel that all is lost.According to Nietzsche， "Nothing is worth living for without music."And Albert Einstein once said，" Without the music education in my childhood，I would succeed in nothing."
   Most of us enjoy different kinds of music just to entertain（娱乐）.Are there other reasons for us to listen to music？Some types of music can make us feel relaxed.After a long workday，classical music or certain types of jazz can physically relax our bodies and take our attention away from the cares of the day—at least for a while.On the other hand，loud，fast music with a strong beat can excite us.In fact，sometimes we may prefer one kind of music，but at other times，that's the last thing we want to listen to.
   Music also affects our feelings.Movie music can most clearly show this.If you close your eyes in an action movie or a disaster movie，you can pretty much tell what's happening on the screen by the music alone.The same is true for a love story.Film composers（作曲家） such as John Williams get paid big money for their ability to change your feelings from moment to moment.So what do you think of music？Clearly，music and feelings are closely connected in some non-physical way.
